Installation

Create a Virtual Environment

We recommend creating a virtual environment to install the Bank Statement Parser. This will ensure that the package is installed in an isolated environment and will not affect other projects.

python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows use `venv\Scripts\activate`

Getting Started

Install bankstatementparser with just one command:

pip install bankstatementparser

Usage

CAMT Files

from bankstatementparser import CamtParser

# Initialize the parser with the CAMT file path
camt_parser = CamtParser('path/to/camt/file.xml')

# Parse the file and get the results
results = camt_parser.parse()

PAIN.001 Files

from bankstatementparser import Pain001Parser

# Initialize the parser with the PAIN.001 file path
pain_parser = Pain001Parser('path/to/pain/file.xml')

# Parse the file and get the results
results = pain_parser.parse()

Command Line Interface (CLI) Guide

Leverage the CLI for quick parsing tasks:

Basic Command

python cli.py --type <file_type> --input <input_file> [--output <output_file>]

• --type: Type of the bank statement file. Currently supported types are "camt" and "pain001".
• --input: Path to the bank statement file.
• --output: (Optional) Path to save the parsed data. If not provided, data is printed to the console.

Examples for CAMT Files

1. Parse a CAMT file and print the results to the console:

   python cli.py --type camt --input path/to/camt/camt_file.xml

   Using the test data:

   python ./bankstatementparser/cli.py --type camt --input ./tests/test_data/camt.053.001.02.xml

2. Parse a CAMT file and save the results to a CSV file:

   python cli.py --type camt --input path/to/camt/file.xml --output path/to/output/file.csv

   Using the test data:

   python ./bankstatementparser/cli.py --type camt --input ./tests/test_data/camt.053.001.02.xml --output ./tests/test_data/camt_file.csv

Examples for PAIN.001 Files

1. Parse a PAIN.001.001.03 file and print the results to the console:

python cli.py --type pain001 --input path/to/pain.001.001.03.xml

Using the test data:

python ./bankstatementparser/cli.py --type pain001 --input ./tests/test_data/pain.001.001.03.xml

2. Parse a PAIN.001.001.03 file and save the results to a CSV file:

python cli.py --type pain001 --input path/to/pain.001.001.03.xml --output path/to/output/file.csv

Using the test data:

python ./bankstatementparser/cli.py --type pain001 --input ./tests/test_data/pain.001.001.03.xml --output ./tests/test_data/pain_file.csv
